2010 Wearable art monologue
Slowly emerging from the depths of the forest is a some what dull, some what dreary bird.
Her fabric feathers resemble the leaves of the Kohekohe tree.
Her bleak image and neutral hue allow her to hide effortlessly, patiently waiting,
Waiting for her moment.
Then suddenly from the distance she spots a flitter of life.
In one swift movement she bears her chopstick claws,
Expands her wings to their fullest and exposes her intention.
She hisses with anticipation of the meal that awaits her.
This is bird Woman!!
